Media Statement by Loke Siew Fook in Petaling Jaya on Wednesday, 29^th July 2009:

DAPSY pledges support and participation in the August 1 Anti-ISA Rally

DAPSY fully supports Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA’s (GMI) anti-ISA rally which will be held on this Saturday. DAPSY leaders and members will also participate in the rally to call for the abolishment of the draconian, inhumane, and primitive Internal Security Act.

We also call upon all Malaysian Youths who wish for a more humane and more democratic Malaysia to join us on that day or at least help spread the word.

For those who wish to participate in the rally, please gather at the three designated meeting points – Sogo, Masjid Jamek and Masjid Negara by 2pm. Participants are required to wear black or red during the rally, but are advised not to do so before the rally. Participants are also advised to ignore the pro-ISA demonstrators who may attempt to cause havoc.

Let this people’s rally on August 1 be the start of a new wave of political and social change!
